[Openstack] Turn a XenServer AllInOne Node into a Compute Node?

Hi, Bob:
Thanks again for your reply!
I reinstalled XenServer on my controller node, same configuration and same
devstack-hanava.xva.
In the compute node, DevStackDomU, I set the remote host to the IP of
DevStack DomU in the controller node.
I have the following problems.
1. When I first boot the controller as a AllInOne node and connect to it
via dashboard, I can see there is one hypervisor (which is the
controller.). However, when I modified the localrc on compute node and
performed ./run.sh, The hypervisor in dashboard is replaced by the one in
compute node. The original controller one is gone.
2. When I try to boot an instance, it immediately fails. Results an error
status.
The log file from both controller and compute are included. They are too
large, so I put them in dropbox and include a link here.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/268069/Log.zip
Can you please take a look at it?
Thanks very much!
Sisu
